Bro, you mean RM175 for one tyre inclusive the balancing + alignment fee?
My original Good Year tyre already costs me RM180 each without the balancing+ alignment fee.

previously i using NCT5 175/65/14
i do feel better when cornering coz the tyre size bigger n grip better
raining day oso quite smooth...
xm2 surely more quiet than previous nct5...

but i expect better after at least 1000km usage...
now the grip still new...so not so stable yet..
after 1k usage,plus change front n back tyre,i think it more good 2 drive+speed

Bro, where did you change your tyres?
I wanna change my tyres next time since the price is a lot cheaper than mine.

Hi guys. Bought my Vios in 2005. After 6 years, it's now making sound when I turn. I believe it's the drivshaft.  Brought to Toyota service centre and the technician told me the price is 6k for 1 pair sad.gif

Any of u guys here changed ur vios driveshaft?  Is there any other reliable brand I can use other than Toyota? Hope u guys. An help. Thanx

Bro,

You don't have to change the driveshaft in the Toyota Service centre.
Find a good mechanic outside and tell them to change back the original Toyota driveshaft for you will save you a lot of money.

wah... some more facelift?
last year only facelift
then last 2 months only come out with the purple vios with bodykit
next one will be all new vios liao...

kena screw kau kau if face lift again leh...
*
Based on the usual Toyota way of doing business, after so many times of face lifted, I think the all new Vios is going to be launched soon. Toyota Yaris has just been launched last month and I think the Vios will follow its foot step too.

where got so many time facelifted? only once la.. those limited are just one-offs.. new vios most probably coming in Q3 next year.
most likely to use the same engine..

There is a 1.3 L Dual vvti engine being used on the new Yaris in UK. God bless us to get the new engine. If not, at least 7 speed S-CVT will be good enough since this is an entry level car.


Added on September 12, 2011, 12:34 pmOh ya...anyway, I am currently Vios E-spec year 2006 and I intend to check in as well... =)

dual VVTI use by toyota i think abit too late... even current Altis...why DVVTI been use in their Altezza's during the 1st model 3S-GE engine.

here are more info for Wikipedia VVT and more

Unfortunately Toyota always keeps their best stuffs in their Japan Domestic Market.

We won't be able to enjoy the Valvematic and Direct Injection technologies unless from the grey importers.

toyota tipu wan arr.. always use outdated tech.. haha. relax la..engine option still not known for new vios.. could be 1.3 offered for new J spec.. who knows rite? or maybe UMW being greedy (as usual) will stick to 1nz-fe but with CVT.. for sure kena whack kaw by other fanbois.

best if they can offer 1ZR-FAE (1.6 dual vvti with valvematic)

the new yaris is said to have better chassis rigidity and weightier steering.

"best if they can offer 1ZR-FAE (1.6 dual vvti with valvematic)"

Impossible lar...dude...Even the new Altis is not using this engine yet..so I dont think so they will put this new tech into their lower entry car.. Somemore their new Yaris is using 1.3 Dual VVTi only.
